Rochester, N.Y. — Protesters calling for a cease-fire in Gaza have moved inside the Wallis Hall at the University of Rochester.

Protesters calling for a cease-fire in Gaza demonstrate outside Wallis Hall at the University of Rochester, Thursday, May 1, 2024.

"And two, to academically divest and cut academic ties to Israel."The student said 20 protesters are holding the sit-in inside the building, while the rest of the group rallies outside.
